The scale scares me right now so I'm refusing to step on it. After a summer of parties, boating, BBQs and fairs my pants are getting tighter. So much tighter. A tube of busted biscuits tight. Sooo.. I'm back at it. Again. Again, I'm switching it up and logging in different places because I keep lying to myself and telling myself that this will be the key. It's a magical key. It's equal to a fairy fart. If you can find a fairy fart then you can kind the key to me actually sticking to this for more than a couple weeks. BUT I have not given up. I will never give up. Someday I will be a really buff woman who can carry all her groceries in the house in one go. Today I would pull something. Someday I will be strong enough to not injure myself doing simple things.

Anyways.. I joined planet fitness last month but then I got side tracked with vacations. From now into eternity I'm going to try and go at least 3 days a week minimum since it's 30 miles from my house. I don't know why but I burn more there when I workout according to my fitbit. I think it's the boyfriend. The boyfriend goes and we are that weird workout couple. He keeps beating me in calories burned. Someday I will beat him. I have all sorts of life goals right now. Beat the boyfriend and get fit and if I can manage it fit into the boyfriends jeans because right now I think they would get stuck on my thighs. Why do men get to have such muscular thighs and I'm stuck with thighs and hips that can knock a person out if they get too close? Just why? It's not fair. I've started doing 50 squats a day too in hopes that this does something.. and not make the thighs thicker.

I'm off to the gym now to give the boyfriends thighs dirty looks while I become red and covered in sweat. I'm not an attractive worker outer.. do skinny people sweat less? Still hopefully yours, Liz.

Ever wake up grumpy? Alarm clock goes off and you open your eyes and you think.. today I choose violence? I woke up like that today. Not necessarily the violence part but definitely a I will choose to death stare anyone who approaches me today attitude.

This was brought on by 3 things. One.. yesterday was stressful and I overate. I was surprised I didn't step on the scale and discover I hadn't gained 10 lbs. I grazed ALL day long. Work was next level. I worked 12 hours to make up for a server crashing on Monday. At 4:55 pm someone on my team called me for a nothing issue just because he didn't like the answer the others on the team had given him. He's difficult on a good day. Let alone a next level day. I declined the call.

Two.. I got 5 hours of sleep maybe? Before I went to bed I received a meeting invite from the guy on an already back to back meeting day. He did this over lunch when I normally go to the gym. I answered the invite with so and so is right. Listen to them and declined. He's someone who doesn't like being told no, he mansplains, talks down to people, tries to push things when he doesn't like them, etc. He thinks these are great qualities. I like the ideas and the feedback but sometimes you have to just let it go.

Three.. I had a dream with the ex's girlfriend in it. She's crazy cakes. She claims she's a nurse BUT SHES NOT. She was a glorified receptionist when she had a job. Seriously. CRAZY CAKES. She hears voices. I feel sorry for her but she's not my monkey. She's only my issue because she's exposed to my 2 boys. She had my 8 yr old convinced people were breaking into the house and touching her stuff, cutting her hair, hiding and talking about her. No one broke in and none of this really happened. I had a dream I had to go to a giant slide/amusement place with her and she kept giving the boys medical advice. Like if you get hurt on the slide that's bad but if a limb goes numb that's ok. I avoid this woman like the plague. The last thing I want to do is dream about her.

I'm still grumpy. I went to the gym. My eating isn't horrible today. I got a hug from the boyfriend at the gym. I should not be grumpy. I'm going to go home now and watch smutty tv. I'm not sure what smutty tv there is but I'm going to find some.

It was my son's 11th birthday yesterday. We planned on keeping it relatively low key with it being a school night and all, then this happened.

Cousin calls my son: "Do you have cake?
Son: "Yeah... it's my birthday. Why?"
Cousin: "Ask your mom if I can come over and eat cake."

A part of me is slightly jealous and wondering if I can behave this way. If a coworker says I'm making tacos for dinner can I ask to come to their home to eat tacos with their family? I don't have to talk to any of them. I'm just there for the tacos. Life should be simpler. Having manners is over rated. Why was I taught this behavior is rude? Is it rude?


That being said I need to get back on the wagon and skip the cake and the tacos. I think I might be done with medical procedures for a while and I should be clear to resume the gym after a 2 freaking week break. Angiograms through the femoral artery are a blast. I gained 10 lbs over 2 weeks thanks to swelling, being a potato, and cake. The good news is nothing appears to be trying to kill me from the inside. Bad news is I now have to pay for medical procedures and I can start from scratch on trying to figure out why I'm a weeble wobble. Bonus.. I can drink and blame not being able to walk a straight line on being a weeble wobble. Bonus bonus every diagnosis about things that could kill me are now moot so... yay? I think? I'm conflicted. I'm going to go put together a survey and see who on my staff is having what for dinner.

Side note, my daughter is completely horrified but the duckies now have their own tiktok. Because why not? I will post more ducky pictures. You can never have too many duckies.

Sometimes I come on here and lurk. I wonder if I should write a journal that just reads "Not dead." I would journal more if I did that. Today I have started 3 journals and erased all of them. Why? Because well.. it seems either trivial, weird, or the equivalent of watching paint dry.

Today I will go with random boring update so I can look back and remember what happened when. Yesterday I went for the day of exams. MRA, blood work, neurosurgeon visit because who doesn't want one of those? In 2 weeks I have to go in for a cerebral angiogram. Not sure if I spelled that right but its not underlined in red. Nothing is conclusive they are still waiting for answers. It means not going to the gym for a week or 2 after the procedure. I'm not supposed to go up stairs or lift anything heavy for 1 week. I wonder how they feel about boat ladders? Memorial Day weekend is a week after the test. Usually that is the first boat weekend.

On a happy note. I have baby ducks. :)

You realize you may have a problem when you have to log food into 3 different trackers just to figure out what you ate for the day because they don't all have the same foods and you eat weird things.

Today the youngest got to go for a trip to the allergist and it went way longer than we anticipated so I ended up with a double quarter pounder with no cheese, no bun, no salt. Because I'm trying to be good and keep the salt, gluten, and dairy to the bare minimum before my next hearing test. Plus it's just about boat season and I would like to weigh slightly less at some point this summer. I'm not expecting miracles.. but if one happens I won't complain. Just sayin.

So now I'm officially switching back to myfitnesspal as a new user so the fact that I ate a shamrock shake and large fry stops showing up in my recently eaten items.. Seriously. There should be a reset to that sort of thing. Just because I ate something doesn't mean I need to be reminded every time I want to log something. It's like passing the girl scouts on the way into walmart. Do I want thin mints? Yes. Do I need to see thin mints to remind me I want them? No.

Now if I can someday figure out how to link my fitbit to my samsung to then update myfitnesspal so it can update fatsecret.. I would be in business because fatsecret does not have a double quarter pounder with no cheese, no salt, no bun and I'm too lazy to input new things. Finding what I ate is hard enough as it is.
